Answer:

x = 73/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{12(x-7)=-11}[/tex]

Distribute 12 in x-7:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{12x-84=-11}[/tex]

Add both sides by 84:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{12x-84+84=-11+84}\\\displaystyle \large{12x=73}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{12x}{12}=\dfrac{73}{12}}\\\displaystyle \large{x=\dfrac{73}{12}}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is x = 73/12

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\bf\:x = \frac{73}{12} = 6\frac{1}{12} \approx 6.083}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]12(x - 7) = -11[/tex]

Multiply 12 by x & 7 (distributive property) in the left hand side of the equation .

[tex]12(x-7)=-11\\(12*x)-(12*7)=-11\\12x - 84 =-11[/tex]

Bring -84 to the right hand side of the equation. Then,

[tex]12x = -11 + 84\\12x = 73\\x=\frac{73}{12} \\\\\boxed{\bf\:x = \frac{73}{12} = 6\frac{1}{12} \approx 6.083}[/tex]
